The “if my grandma had wheels, she would have been a bicycle” fallacy.

Whata you say make-a no sense! False equivalence

The best thing is adding the metadata of a book by ISBN. That or simply search it on worldcat.org and adding by the browser extension.

Phenomenal citations manager.

Academics focused, but Zotero indexing a large cloud storage drive.

Let’s things organized by subject, tag, author, title, or whatever else I want. Also keeps my notes all in one place. Huge huge proponent and it’s open source!

Yeah! The US is totally a paper tiger! They’ve never even shown their military industrial complex is capable of effectively disrupting entire regions from the other side of the world!

What even is this take?

But, why not just update them so that 10 is higher?

Yeah! Airbags suck! Wait, what?

Clown take if I’ve ever seen one lol

Biden might not reel in that electoral sweep that’s been forecasted for Missouri (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_United_States_presidential_election_in_Missouri)…

Real talk though, elections matter and this is not a “both sides bad” situation. Specific policy disagreements with one side and the systematic dismantling of the American government are not equivalent criticisms.

Vote and bring a friend. Every year, the number of eligible voters who don’t show up at the polls represent a big enough voting block to win the election outright. While you face almost impossible odds persuading a member of the opposite political party to switch sides, after college age, it is entirely possible to convince someone to get in the car with you and vote (even better to mail in where possible).

Mobilization is what will decide 2024, not persuasion. Everyone needs to remember that despite 2020’s outcome, the election was decided by fewer voters than you can fit inside a football stadium (due to our electoral college fun times). If you live in GA, AZ, WI, PN, NC, NV, or MI—You. Must. Vote! …preferably early.

Cynics who tell you otherwise do not understand how much harder it is to rebuild a system than it is to maintain one. This one needs significant maintenance, like back to the shop engine work. We will not have a repair shop left to go to if we don’t get out the vote right now.

I used to love Reply All before Alec Goldman’s shenanigans (awful behavior) came to light. So it was a real bright spot for me to find that PJ’s pod has almost everything I loved about Reply All. He’s willing to pursue things past the point any reasonable person with a job would and I love it. If you want a deep dive about whatever rabbit hole that takes his interest for the episode, it’s a great place imo.

Boondock Saints is trash.

Can’t think of another movie I remember loving as a teen, and liking less as a grownup than this movie. Directing, plot, premise, are just as contrived as a film could be. One out of seven rating (and the one is only because of the rice).

Sorry for your loss…

Finally! Life begins at inflation, and the cops need to be punishing anyone who doesn’t respect the sanctity of bblife.

Yeah but the rest of us aren’t savages though…

Kidding, much love to the Aussies. Using fortnight unironically and eating Vegemite voluntarily… you crazy emu-battlers are always up to something wild down there

Last.fm used to have a Pandora radio aspect to it, but lost the race with YouTube music, Spotify, etc.

The thing that last.fm had that made them unique is what they call scrobbling. Basically they kept track of what users were listening to and made links between user preferences that you can use to find new music. I mean they used to, and they still do too, but with far far fewer users. Think Spotify’s year in review, but running constantly.

Honestly, it’s pretty great. I still hop on from time to time, because it’s a great way to find less well known bands. Makes me sad for when it was better used though…

That cozy Christmas feeling of getting your every need taken care of by an adoring fan…

It’s science reporting and not immune to headline inflation, but it’s not a lie to say there were measured improvements to patient cognition.

There’s a developing consensus that electric stimulation has therapeutic potential in restoring brain function (from basal ganglion to transdermal stim). But if you want the full study findings here, I course this article because it looks the DOI address at the bottom.

Given how few (none) treatments they’re are for TBIs right now, this is pretty exciting stuff to me at least.

I completely disagree. What this place needs is a bunch of bot accounts that endlessly spam the top comments from when whatever’s posted was on the front page last week.

Or the week before that I guess…

So what he said was true, from a certain point of view…

(Jedi noises intensify)

Nazi Punks Fuck Off!

Only safari (webkit} shells. There’s been rumors of apple preparing to open up that requirement for appstore approval, but hasn’t happened yet as far as I know.

Honestly that, and not being able to side load, are the only things holding me from switching. Yes I could get a pixel and install graphene OS on it, but I don’t have time for that anymore and I just want a simple solution that gets support out of the box, and allows me to run the apps I want.

You’re right I hope. Especially about gorillas sharing video! We need a guerilla movement to get these gorillas some cell phones and I’ve been saying it for years!
